Prepare to uncover the latest shifts in the automotive landscape with insights from Alex Kwanten of US News and World Report. We promise you'll learn how the once-reliable three-row SUVs are losing ground to their midsize and compact counterparts as inflation stabilizes and consumers hunt for value in vehicles under $40,000. Join us as we evaluate the ripple effects of changing family dynamics and the evolving quest for fuel-efficient, feature-rich rides. Our conversation shines a light on how brands are responding to these changes, with Hyundai and Kia making significant inroads in the hybrid and EV market, challenging the traditional dominance of Honda and Toyota.

We don't stop at market dynamics; there's buzz from automotive events and innovations that you won't want to miss. Catch the highlights from a vibrant Veterans Day car show in Pasadena, Texas, and get a sneak peek into Cadillac’s high-octane plans for their electric Lyric's V-Series variant. From the off-road allure of the Rivian R1S to Stellantis' puzzling strategic choices, we explore the ups and downs of the industry. Plus, we share a laugh over voting quirks and discuss the impact of personalities like Kimberly Schultz on the car community. Tune in for a blend of analysis, critiques, and a little lighthearted banter.
